Scoring: IMP

1NT - (2♦*) - 4♥ - (4♠) - ?

Your 1NT showed 12-15. Their 2♦ showed ♠ and another


Hi folks. Just interested in how you judge this one.

Pass. I don't see the need to bid here. We might be beating 4♠ if pard is as little as 1=6=2=4 with either the ♥A or the ♣J.

5♥ doesn't look appealing to me with my flat hand and scattered defense.

Not me. I bid 5♥.

They may be going down in 4♠, or they may be making. We may be going down in 5♥, or we may be making. I am not defending with a known 10 or 11 card heart fit.

Besides, some of the time when both sides make 10 tricks they bid one more.

5♥
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

Pass. a 3433 is just another permutation for 4x3. This is one of the nicest 4x3's I can offer to pd, but not really close IMHO.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

X

It is either pass or double, I would go
with X, but mainly to stop partner from
bidding on.

With kind regards
